Tessa spelt backwards is asset; a useful or valuable thing or person.I've always been interested in people, hence choosing psychology and anthropology majors for my Bachelor of Arts degree. During my time as Graduate Programs Coordinator at Fusion Graduate Consultancy, I quickly became the go-to-gal for anything creative; from designing client presentations to managing the business' marketing strategy. Throughout my one-year travel stint 'overseas' (the word most people who look like me use interchangeably with 'Europe') I spent four months working as a Research Support Administrator at the University of Oxford. Living overseas and traveling for so long gave me a love of meeting new people, and opened up my horizons beyond my bubble in Australia. Upon my return to the oh-so-mild Melbournian summer, I successfully applied to AWARD School, aiming to kick-start my creative career. Enjoyably hard late nights made me sure that this was the space for me, culminating in getting my piece titled 'Ball Blush' on the renowned 'Wall'.You can find Ball Blush, along with other projects such as Bumble Pay (a plug in feature that accounts for the gender pay gap when splitting costs), my 35mm photography on a camera that shouldn't exist, my various social media projects, and a 200-word argument as to why sparkling water is the greatest innovation of all time.
